Manage episode 289250177 series 2835102
This week we're talking about all the different words, phrases and idioms we have in English describe things or people that we find annoying. We use quite a few in this episode! And those two little old ladies, Mabel and Sylvia are back illustrating the Idiom of the Week - in the aftermath of the Parish Council elections, which one of them was 'beside themselves with rage', do you think?
